The report also states that Waterson is refusing to face Jedrzejczyk at catchweight or face a potential replacement opponents in Amanda Ribas or Mackenzie Dern.

Marinho also reports that the UFC is speaking with Angela Hill about replacing Waterson on the card to face Jedrzejczyk in the main event at catchweight. Waterson, according to the report, would then be moved to next months UFC 244 card to face a yet to be named opponent.

There has been no comment yet from the UFC, Waterson, Jedrzejczyk or anybody else involved in the situation.

Jedrzejczyk, a short time after the above story was posted, would comment on the matter via Instagram stories (via Danny Segura of MMA Fighting):

“I don’t know what’s going on, the weigh-ins are tomorrow [They’re scheduled for Friday morning] and you’re all worried about. The fight is on, the weighs-in are on Friday. Keep it calm, guys. All fine, step by step. I will see you there. Did I miss something? Did I miss the weigh-ins today or what? Because the weigh ins are on Friday, isn’t it?”
